Braised Beef Tip over Rice

Submitted by Starcry

"My mother used to make this for us all of the time, this is by far my best recipe to share. I always use 1/8 tsp of garlic powder instead of messing with real garlic and this recipe can use very inexpensive cuts of meat because it cooks for so long but it is always very tender!"

I followed the recipe exactly as written to start off but it was so lacking in flavor I had to start improvising and adding herbs and spices just to be able to serve it. (3)

This recipe was delicious and easy. I couldn't believe how tender the meat got.

This is a great beef tip recipe. I used beef sirloin cubes browned in a couple of tablespoons of bacon fat for extra flavor, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. The beef was tender and the gravy was delicious. Thanks for posting it Starcry.
